Wheel of Time MUD

Water skins load on the thieves in the area D from Blarg.

Awesome. Thank you

I put them on brigs.

So, not a bug.

Why wasn't this mentioned in the no-hide post then? Plus in this instance, who on LS would go to Lockshear just for the grocer? Seems like an overly excessive change.

Shopmobs are frequently used in multiple areas. This one is probably identical to ones in the south. As to why it wasn't communicated, the primary complaint was that players did not know whether to pay more attention in some areas, or not.

It's all of the grocers, not just the Lockshear one. Is fine imo I was just wondering why it was so powerful.

This was done in conjunction with the removal of no-hides, to ensure that vital shop mobs aren't so easily killed. After all, it would suck if one had eq or weapon in mend and couldn't get them out due to the shopmob being gone, or if a grocer was dead and one couldn't buy a vital object like a lantern.

So, not a bug.

I am wondering why the LS grocer is so powerful, as well. I went from hurt to dead after a clumsied stab and 4 failed flees. It was the grocer and his 2 guards. I have 290 defense and the grocer was hitting me for frags every attack, like I was naked or something. Why was he suddenly upped? He's the only mob up north that loads a water flask, btw.

If the imm's want him to be a miniSmob, fine. But please make DS butchers in RK/KK/SH/TKD load flasks and standard waterskins. They're lighter, and for us dodge/combo trollocs, they are more desirable than the standard DS skin of human flesh.

So, I go from wound to beat because this grocer is hitting me for like 40 hp though combo, which is nuts. When Puny and I both grab a mob and we still can't kill it, it's a little ridiculous. Did the grocers get fucked with and upped or this a bug???
